Think Spring! Think Gardening!The Down To Earth Community Garden is growing! Yes, we have room for expansion and would like to welcome any interested teachers, staff or student families to participate in the garden. There is a small fee to rent a plot (3 sizes available). The gardener provides their own seeds or plants and cultivates their bed all season long. At the end of the season each gardener is responsible for cleaning up their bed. Water, compost, tools, education, collaboration and support are provided. It’s a great way to eat fresh vegetables all summer long, save money, get exercise and fresh air, meet new families and beautify the City School landscape.
